Hi, Mark here. Hope all is well with you.

Whether you’re a beginner eager to learn or a seasoned swimmer aiming to refine your technique, I’ve got you covered.

​

Unlock the Secrets of Freestyle Swimming

​

Freestyle, also known as front crawl, is celebrated for its speed and grace. To help you master this stroke, I’ve broken it down into five essential components:

1. Body Position: Maintain a long, flat, and streamlined posture to reduce drag and enhance efficiency.

2. Leg Kick: Develop a relaxed, continuous kick originating from the hips to provide balance and propulsion.

3. Arm Action: Focus on a smooth, complete arm pull, extending from the front and pushing through to the hip.

4. Breathing Technique: Learn to coordinate your breathing with your strokes, ensuring a steady rhythm and ample oxygen supply.

5. Timing and Coordination: Harmonize all elements of the stroke for a fluid and effective freestyle.

​
